Updated UBL v2.1 document schemas for CPFR Business Process

[Fulya Tuncer <fulya@srdc.metu.edu.tr>]

Dear UBL PSC members,

Enclosed please find the updated UBL v2.1 document schemas for CPFR 
Business Process and our response to comments that was sent by Arianna 
on 9/9/09.

After the meeting, I revised all the document schemas and updated them 
according to UBL v2.1 document template. The basic updates that I 
realized are as follows:
     *I updated "GoodsItems. Details" with Item.Details and Sales Items. 
Details according to context: whether the quantity and identification 
are needed or not.
     * I moved to SellerSupplier and  BuyerCustomer parties to the 
header level in the documents and  I also included Sender and Receiver 
Party.  As I indicated in the meeting, we could not qualify the Sender 
and Receiver Parties since these documents are bi-directional messages; 
the sender or the receiver can either be a Seller or a Buyer.
As exceptions, Performace History document schema now only includes 
Sender and Receiver Party, since performance data shall be shared only 
within two party, it is not only related with Seller or Buyer parties. 
And the Product Activity has SellerSupplier and  BuyerCustomer BIEs in 
the lower level than the header level, since a party may report 
activities related with more than one SellerSupplier or BuyerCustomer.
     * Previously most of the BIEs are mandatory, I made some of them 
optional if it is applicable.
     * I merge some of the BIEs into one as they include common BIE 
Properties.
     * I refine the Property Terms. I hope this time they are not 
neither so generic nor so specific.
     * I updated the format of the spreadsheets, and re-organized the 
order of BIE Properties in ABIEs.

Finally we are working on loading the document schemas to eDoCreator and 
developing an user interface to let you load the document schemas later 
by yourself. I will announce this when the documents are ready.

Best regards,

Fulya
